Since joining the Nike SB programme in 2009, Eric Koston's insight and deep affinity for Nike heritage have left a lasting imprint on several SB staples and signature models. Instrumental in adapting and enhancing the legendary Air Max 95 for skateboarding, the AM95's 30th anniversary was the perfect launching pad for a customised Koston iteration of an icon. Going back to the days when Koston was given the design keys to craft signature shoes, the Koston Nike SB Air Max 95 nostalgically returns to Eric's go-to colour choices and signature details.

Adding Koston name-skate details to the AM95 tongue logo and sockliner, Eric requested a unique toe-tip Nike detail in Thai script to honour his heritage and serve as a callback to his early SB designs. Using the distinct skeletal-inspired lines of the OG, the Koston Air Max 95 features specific enhancements for skateboarding, including a leather and suede upper, folded edge, double-stitch reinforcement in key wear areas for durability, and reduced foam and updated lugs with herringbone tread for board feel and traction while maintaining the aesthetics and functionality of the original AM95 Max Air unit.
